LIINES release their debut album Stop-Start on 4 May via Reckless Yes Records. The Manchester trio are a prominent band in the post-punk / new-wave scene, with comparisons ranging from Savages to PINS to Desperate Journalist. Their sound is an infectious, urgent and at times furious blend of Riot Grrrl, post-punk and alt-rock sounds which take in elements of their collective influences. There’s the dark angular undertones and brooding introspection of Joy Division, the high energy of The Pixies and the emotive, impassioned sound of Sleater-Kinney wrapped in catchy fast-paced riff-laden songs.

With a lyrical depth and stirring vocal delivery that matches the visceral music, the songs of LIINES revolve around raw themes of loss, obsession and emptiness, and are a product of introspection. As vocalist Zoe McVeigh explains: “I love a band that gives everything, and a singer who feels every single word.”

What were you thinking?
You take me over
What were you thinking?
You pull me under

What were you thinking?
Now that it's over
What were you thinking?
It hurts all over

What were you thinking?
What were you thinking?
Cos I can't get over it
And I can't forget it

What were you thinking?
What were you thinking?
Cos I can't get over it
And I can't forget it

What were you thinking?
What were you thinking?
Cos I can't get over it
And I can't forget it

What were you thinking?
What were you thinking?
Cos I can't get over it
And I can't forget it
